Don’t know if this is happening to anyone else, but if I select a single word, or a couple words in someone else’s post, I get the normal “quote” hover thing, like this:

But if I select a whole paragraph, the “quote” hover goes away:

Ah right, in testing, it seems that if the “quote”-ed test includes an @ or some `text` it seems to break the “quote” function.

Can someone else test this to see if it’s just me?

indeed it is a ‘new’ behaviour. I’m sure a new update of discourse will sort this. I can update tomorrow first thing (when people sleep)

Just updated, not sorted. It is on meta: [https://meta.discourse.org/t/unable-to-quote-multiple-paragraphs/165487/](https://meta.discourse.org/t/unable-to-quote-multiple-paragraphs/165487/) so should be fixed.

Cool.

It looks like the same problem is happening on [lines](http://llllllll.co), so it’ll be a discourse-level thing.

I haven’t seen any meta/moderator chat about it, but noticed someone mentioning it and tested it myself. But will do.
